- Is it just a class or is it an overnight or a weekend thing? Those are pretty pricey, but usually the orientation itself is free. Unless it isn't - jnine Feb 25, 16:26 6
  - It is not a major State College and she will be living at home and driving up the road for classes - I have no idea what she gets - Epiphany Feb 25, 17:22
  - I'm fairly certain mine wasn't any extra, but then again my tuition was 45k a year -- nm - Gwaahjo Feb 25, 16:52
  - mine was two weeks. I think undergrads here pay half that for one week. -- nm - the ides of march love mandy lane Feb 25, 16:45 3
    - I am on an alumni committee that works on orientation. It's free to attend the day class, but it you want to attend the 3 day (which is recommended) - jnine Feb 25, 16:53 2
